It's possible some of the same rebel militias the US helped oust Gadhafi have now turned their sights on the US presence in Libya

In response to the attack on the US consulate building in Libya on Tuesday night, now widely considered to have been planned by al-Qaeda, the Obama administration has ordered drones to fly over the country, additional US Marines to guard diplomatic buildings, and warships to the Libyan coast.

The administration on Wednesday announced sending drones to fly over Benghazi and other locations in eastern Libya in search of jihadi encampments that may have been involved in the attack, which killed four Americans. The fact that additional US Marines and warships, which carry Tomahawk missiles, have been included in the reaction could spell airstrikes in the near future.

These policies, as well as an extensive FBI investigation into the incident, appear to be the beginnings of what CBS News called “a terrorist hunt in Libya, as evidence mounts assault was perpetrated by al-Qaeda affiliates in Libya.

Al-Qaeda’s resurgence in Libya came as a direct result of the US-led NATO mission there which unseated former dictator Muammar Gadhafi and left a dangerous power vacuum in the country. It’s possible that some of the same rebel militias the US assisted in ousting Gadhafi have now used their renewed prominence against Washington’s interests in Libya.

Should we ask, "Where were the Marines who were suposed to protect the Embassy and Consulate?
It sounds like we need to re-assign some combat tested Marines from Afghanistan to Libya. Not very pretty, but very practical. State should purchase some of the newest inventions that are being developed in the US to intimidate protest crowds. The first one could be the shreeking machine that deafens the attackers and then work up to pepper gas dispensers and eventually to deadly force.

Now the US will start a killing spree, but this will aggravate things more. Some never learn; they are the ones that believe that their technological tools will fix their problems. Hey Yanks, why don't you just go back home and lead normal lives? Otherwise, the fall will hurt much more-

Sleeping with the enemy, bitten by the enemy. What an example of quick blowback! Who is not able to learn from mistakes is going to repeat them.

Not so funny is the fact, that movie which gave idiots from Al-Queda motive to inflame masses of poor idiots was made in America by self-professed "Israeli Jew". Is that thank you note from the hell for not supporting attack on Iran? Hey, just asking …

Yeah, that's right. Time to start building military bases and putting some boots on the ground for an occupation, a la Afghanistan circa 2002-2008. Libya is Obama's baby and it's starting to grow into the disaster we said would happen if he followed through with smashing the Qaddafi government.

It appears to me that the so called "Arab Spring" has been co-opted by our American State Dept to promote anarchy in the Arab countries. Our State Dept enabled some of the Libyans to get rid of Qadaffi in favor of what? – looks like a vacuum to me. Likewise, we want Syria to get rid of Assad in favor of what? – another vacuum. What will we accomplish if we attack Iran – get rid of Ahmadinejad? Big Deal, his term of office ends soon anyway. Who do we want in his place? – another vacuum. The reasoning behind our strategy escapes me. Do we expect that mobs will be easier to control. If she thinks so, Hillary is as crazy as a coffee can rat.

This over-reaction certainly demonstrates the amateur-ness of the Obama crowd, particularly now in the midst of an election campaign. We knew the al Queda were in Eastern Libya because Gaddafi explained it to us at the outset of troubles. We sent idiot McCain to sniff it out and he said they weren't there. Yet they ran much of the resistance to Gaddafi and we supported them. Now, they are back, at least those we haven't shipped off to help us depose Assad in Syria. Can a Romney in the White House play it worse than this? Marines, Drones, and "all the ship at sea" as Walt Winshell used to say. Why not a could of big bunker busters in the middle of a crowded city?

You can use a slingshot, it's just that you don't have many options when it comes to targets. If you intend to cripple the elephant, that's another matter altogether; I suggest a large pair of scissors.

Of course that would bring the world into a nuclear winter, we would strike back after the first rocket was launched at us. Not a good solution, we just need to keep our nose out of other people's business in all apspects. If they need help after a natural disaster get it from someone else, you have war problems let someone else take care of it. We have our own country to take care of.

"Our" strategy is simple: destabilizing a country with military action = profits for the MICC(the 1%). After blowback, deploy military again. More profits. Rinse and repeat until the 1% own everything, and the plummeting US standard of living equals that of China. Voila! The US is competitive — and hungry — once again, and grandma and grandpa can tell their grandchildren stories about how "our" country was once the greatest in the word.

I'm no fan of Reagan, but when the Marines were blown up in Beirut, he didn't worry about looking weak, his just got the hell out. To this day, i believe nearly everyone — probably not John McCain or the Neocon Zionists — celebrates that decision as smart and courageous.

Drones, marines and warships all shunted around the globe with whimsical ease! As the US Empire turns ever more obsessive, further overextending and expending in frenetic assymetrical whack-a-mole, it's clearly getting easier and easier to drive the lone super-duper-power completely insane and insolvent.

Al-Qaeda's ever-multiplying fans and imitators must be howling with delight.

LOL! Those are not the only things Obomber has sent into Libya. He's also sent "FBI evidence teams" — no doubt, these are the same FBI "evidence" teams that have paid criminals to set up patsies with plastic bombs so they can be charged with "terrorism." The same FBI "evidence" teams that arrested OWS protesters for "terrorism" and impounded their beer brewing equipment as "evidence" that they were planning to make a bomb. Surely, all is under control now and Libya is all but done.

I'm losing my mind…what's the point of even talking about this anymore…'our' 'national discourse' when it comes to "foreign policy" is beyond absurd at this point…

The lame-stream will most likely talk about this Youtube video no one has ever heard of for the next week or so…and it wouldn't surprise me if that will be the extent of the "discussion"…

These "peaceful protests" involving armed militants, arson, and death in Libya are what the "peaceful protests" in Libya's so called "Arab Spring" have always been…before/during/and after Gaddafi's fall… How is this a surprise, and why doesn't anyone in the lame-stream seem to bring this up???

News Flash: the "protests" in Libya's so called "Arab Spring" (specifically in Benghazi) were never typically "peaceful", nor were they typically "protests" for "freedom"… Welcome to last year….

Have there been violent "protests" in Benghazi recently involving arson? But of course…

One notable "protest" involved the "peaceful protesters" in Benghazi storming polling facilities and burning voter rolls in the Nation's 1st "election" post-Gaddafi's which took place in July…

Did anything significant happen yesterday in Libya other than the stupid YouTube video no one has ever heard of surfacing and obviously the storming of the US consulate? Come to think of it, yes… Yesterday a new Prime Minister was 'elected' by the Lybian Parliament…

Well over a decade since 9/11, bigotry and racial intolerance have engulfed our country when Lady Liberty is supposed to hold her arms open and embrace all world cultures. Anti-Islamic and Muslim rhetoric have filled our political halls and been laid out as the basis for never-ending wars and distress in the Middle East. We’re taught as a nation to fear these people and wage a race war of hate and discrimination against them.
